Question

If a car averages 50 1/3 miles per hour, how many hours will it take to go 47 1/2 miles as an improper fraction

Answer 1

Do you know a relationship between rate, time, and distance?

Answer 2

can you refresh my memory

Answer 3

distance = rate times time

Answer 4

Can you solve that for time?

Answer 5

time = rate times distance

Answer 6

\[50\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }=\frac{ 151 }{ 3 }\]
\[47\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 95 }{ 2 }\]
\[time~taken ~\to~complete~\frac{ 151 }{ 3 }~miles=1~hour\]
\[time~taken~\to~travel ~1~mile=1*\frac{ 3 }{ 151 }~hours.\]
\[time~taken~\to~travel \frac{ 95 }{ 2 }~miles=\frac{ 3 }{ 151 } \times \frac{ 95 }{ 2 }=?\]

Answer 7

is that correct

Answer 8

Check your solving step.

Answer 9

gotta go be right back

Answer 10

Question is simple
Speed is 151/3 miles/hr
Distance is 95/2 miles
Do Time = Distance / Speed = (95/2) / (151/3) = 285/302

Answer is 285/302
